Firstly though, I want to tell you something incredibly important. Your child’s behaviour is not your fault. There is absolutely nothing you have done, or haven’t done, to cause this. This is a part of your child’s neurodevelopmental disorder, it’s a symptom of their condition, in the same way that a cough is a symptom of a heavy cold. So it’s not their fault either. They don’t want to be like this any more than you do.
